Statue of James Henry Greathead, railway engineer at grid reference TQ327811 in Cornhill, London, EC3. The Royal Exchange is in the background and Bank tube station is behind the photographer.
Recognition of Greathead's contribution to London (and tunnelling in general) came rather late: this bronze statue was only unveiled on 17 January 1994. It is 10 feet high and is by James Butler, RA. The plinth on which it stands is in fact a ventilation shaft for the Northern Line beneath it. The shield on the plinth is that of the City and South London Railway which became the Northern Line.
